Whether in a hurry styling on the go or creating a look around a GOOD hair piece itself, our 3 stores and online availability give you more than enough options. Trends we have seen in the hair accessory forecast include just some of the following:
- Secure that updo. Want a lovely way to hold those wispies in place? Slip a barrette in in order to secure the style and add some oomph!
- Hold back hair on a single side. This style is old school glam at it’s best! By pulling hair back on one side, you can show off a bold earring and highlight those cheekbones.
- Top off a pony. Who likes a boring elastic band?! Give a sleek ponytail some overall polish with a tortoise barrette. If you are going to a dressier location, pearl-encrusted barrettes up the ante a bit and certainly up your classy hair game.
- Branded Barrettes are huge! Show some love for your favorite one by rocking the brand’s name in a big and bold way.
- Parting hair down the middle and adorning EACH side is an 80’s take on this new trend. If gaining instant attention for a look-at-me ensemble is your goal, this take might be the one for you.
